Ok. i will have to port the tree again. Some other changes as well, I
need to add in support for the DVB-S2 cards as well. But it needs a
bit of time from my side on it. I will club it alongwith the DVB-S2
changes.

You wouldn't need to touch I2C/DMA for that. It will Resume as soon as
the PCI device is enabled back. What you will have in the RISC FIFO
will be garbage after you Resume, the only disadvantage is on Resume,
you initially have a few blocks of garbage, but considering the DVB
stream, that's nothing an extremely short period, which might not be
noticeable even in some cases.
What _really_ that's need to be done is:
In the suspend call back
* Switch off tuner power, the function already is there.
* disable the device, this is achieved by the "Suspend code in kernel"
by writing to the PCI config space directly. You don't need to
manually toggle it. Already handled by the PCI Subsystem, AFAIK.
In the resume in the case of the 2033, you just need to tune back,
that's all. in the current code all initialization is by code, rather
than values from an init table. That's the only difference, but that
doesn't make any difference.

Do you need to do so much ? AFAICS, for suspend/resume you need to do
just very little.
Julian has a tested patch for the KNC1 cards, which makes it look
quite neat. Would appreciate, if you would take a look at it as well.
If you have any comments or need any suggestions/help, please do let me know.

What all problems that brings in after the recent licensing thread on
some modules for everyone .. Bah.
